Product Description:

Growing evidence links prenatal air pollution with early behavioral outcomes, yet U.S. studies remain sparse. We analyzed data from 8370 mother-child dyads from 28 Environmental influences on Child Health Outcomes (ECHO) Cohort sites. Prenatal nitrogen dioxide (NO2), fine particulate (PM2.5), and ozone (O3) levels were estimated using residential addresses. Caregiver-reported Child Behavior Checklist for ages 1.5-5 (CBCL/1.5-5) assessed internalizing and externalizing problems.
